Mystical Christian Jesus Prayer (russian) - Prayer of the Heart - Noetic Prayer - Иисусова молитва

The Jesus Prayer, also known as The Prayer, is a short formulaic prayer esteemed and advocated especially within the Eastern churches: “Lord Jesus Christ, Son of God, have mercy on me, a sinner.“ The prayer has been widely taught and discussed throughout the history of the Orthodox Church. The ancient and original form did not include the words “a sinner“, which were added later. It is often repeated continually as a part of personal ascetic practice, its use being an integral part of the eremitic tradition
